The Kentucky State Parks are offering lodging discounts to
current and former members of the armed services with the “USA Military
Discount” program from today to March 31, 2015.
The program is available to those on active military duty, retired
members of the military, veterans, members of the National Guard and
reservists. Proof of military service is required at check-in.
“This special lodging offer is one way we can show our appreciation to
the men and women who serve or who have served in uniform for our
country,” Parks Commissioner Elaine Walker said in a news release. “Our
Kentucky State Parks offer many great outdoor opportunities for military
families.”
There are 17 Kentucky state parks with resorts that offer golf, fishing,
hiking, and full-service restaurants. Many resorts are near or include
historic sites and museums and offer programs during the fall and
winter, such as elk tours, eagle watching tours and entertainment.
This offer may not be used in conjunction with other special discounts
or packages. The discount is based on availability, for leisure travel
only, and may exclude special events and holidays.

During the months of April through October, current and former members
of the military can get a 10 percent lodging or camping discount.
